Canthetuna, any thoughts on the Toyota SUVs? I know that's your area of expertise.

Missed this before my last post. I had a CRV and am planning on buying a new one soon. I have test driven the Forrester and just didn't like it nearly as much. The one thing about the CRV that is killer though: road noise. It is a loud car on the highways. The Forrester really is a SUW (sports utility wagon). You can't go wrong with the CRV. The others in this class are really down a level in terms of value for durability, safety, efficiency and overall ammenity.
Seriously though. find a BMW dealer and test a 3 series. You will love it. especially if it is a 325 or 8. Probably more than you want to spend but you'll get a good return on it when you get rid of it later on. It wont cost much more in the long run than an Accord.
